A good entertaining movie! Good movie, do not a comedy and parody, not just a film about drug addicts and irresponsible people. Film about the cynicism of our time on the venality of all. With the offer to see the world differently. The depth of the fall into the abyss of immorality. There is black humor and is not normative lexicon, as well as elements of eroticism and a lot of blood. The world of advertising so is business. The ending is so generally pleasantly surprised. Such an end, but as it turned out is not the end. Frankly I do not understand people who write something like "wasting time", etc. Movies must be different! And do not worry on the "worst film of the book." Just look!

So this movie has two endings which is something i personally hate because i think you should just go for one ending and stick to it. With that being said. This movie had 10/10 potential .. it was very good and the ending with him jumping off the roof was perfect and made sense with the plot in general. If it ended at that point I'd definately give it 9 or 10/10. BUT ! For some reason they added a second ending in which he ends up in a jungle and ultimately gets reunited with his ex and his daughter. This ending makes no sense at all and is just a cheesy uneccesary attempt of satisfying people that desperately need a happy end. 5/10 .. Just stick to one ending !

A drug-addict, low intellect, self-entitled, rude-mannered person considering himself somewhat of a God, simply because he does some advertisement for some allegedly big corporate, drive somewhat of an expensive car and occasionally have intercourse with hot women. It was mostly boring to watch this illiterate movie. As for the ending; yes what a revolution, presuming this would happen in real life, all that self-entitled idiot would achieve would be to bankrupt the company cost probably thousands of jobs while enriching some other competitor. We are supposed to be shocked by the amount that is spent on advertising? Of course people will spend bunch of money to that, without it, trade and growth would all be less. Instead of advising to be wise and informed consumers, the movie criticize everything about 'consumerism'. What you consume/spend is another person's income, is not inherently evil. Overall, another illiterate attempt to criticize current society.

Dark comedy about the world of advertising, full of cocaine-fueled madness, based on the eponymous autobiographical novel by Frédéric Beigbeder. It's a transparent critique of western consumerism, a bit naive and full of clichés and a bit cynical. A very entertaining film overall.

The movie was recommended to me by a close friend over and over again :) until I watched it one day and was like "WTF why I did not see it before ??? ". The Actors, the Story and the Director just incredible. The movie is about marketing and the guys who work in marketing ... and it seems that this kind of work is not the cleanest :) I will not spoiler here the story but the tempo of the movie and story is just amazing. I cant understand why this movie has so low reviews. One of the best movies from the first decade of the 2000s and also still now ..it is up there with The Wolf of Wallstreet. If you have a chance to watch it and you are into funny strange stories please do yourself a favour !!!

This is definitely not a mainstream movie. If you are finding yourself ever and ever trying to go deeper in peoples minds and thoughts, this film is made for you. If you are a creative being, such like a programmer or designer, or simply wants to know what is going on in the world of high creative common this film is made for you. If you like psych, weired, mess people you will like this film too. But if you are not feeling addressed now, it could happen that you will feel this movie as a waste of time. ---- Have fun

99 francs mean like 50 cents, because is like a cheap cost because the movie is about advertising people and ads(from food or whatever).this is one of the most over the top movies i have ever seen. The point of the movie is to say that some people in the ads industry takes so much drugs, and they forgot even the ads. So is crazy, cynical, surreal and never stops.the plot at some point is about a yogurt ad, and how to make it reach everybody...if u have seen the movie, you know this goes beyond what everybody expect. This movie is more about people behind advertising and how much takes of some of them energy and crazyness to invent new ads.so is a movie so good that makes you think thats why some car ads(or food ads)are so weird, because people like this one.

This movie was made like a giant advertising with very rhythmic effects and fast moving pictures. At least, it will keep the eye entertained during the whole movie but there's more in it. It describes in a fun way what everybody knows is a sad world. Drugs, sex parties, late work hours, pretentious people, and meetings with stupid people, this is the way it works in the advertising industry. It's a very funny criticism of advertising and the way it's made. I feared it would not do justice to Beigbeder's excellent book but in fact it's quite good. Most of all, Jean Dujardin is very good in his role. He could be one of those mens you see working at Publicis on the champs Elysees ! Some people may not like the movie because there is a lot of sex and drug taking inside the movie. Yet, it's a good social depiction of this world. Don't go with the children's (the rating is not very explicit about the real content of the film) and enjoy yourself.
